Intro

Verse

 A day with no glory

A heart filled with fear

 Repeating his story to make ourselves clear

 A voice is unheard when it shouts from the hills

 Your king in his castle never died on these fields

 There’s blood on your hands, a smile on your face

 Wicked intention, there’s money to be made

 A room with no windows and a heart that can’t feel

 Shame with no convictions and a view to a kill

Chorus

 Tell me why, why must we fight

 Why must we kill in the name of what we think is right

 And no more

 No war

 ‘Cause how do you know?

Verse

 The hate in your eyes

The lies on your tongue

 A hand that kills the innocent, so quick to do wrong

 The belly is full while we fight for what remains

 The rich getting richer while the poor become slaves

 We kill our own brothers, the truth is never told

 If victory is freedom, then the truth is untold

 Surrender your soldiers like everyone else

 If love is my religion, don’t speak for myself

Chorus

 Tell me why, why must we fight

 Why must we kill in the name of what we think is right

 And no more

 No war

 ‘Cause how do you know?

Bridge

 And how do you know?

 And how do you know?

 And how do you know?

 And how do you know?

Chorus

 Please tell me why, why must we fight

 Why must we kill in the name of what we think is right

 And no more

 No war

 ‘Cause how do you know?

 I'm living this life,

 I'm given these lies

 And how do I die in the name of what you think is right?

 And no more

 Oh Lord

 ‘Cause how do we know?

 And how do we know?

And that's it. Really easy, straightforward song. But good nontheless.
